The speeches were epic! My best friends did a joint speech for me. They did a role play of how I first told them about Iffan and him asking me to go on a trip of a lifetime to South America. They had all the guests laughing, and what they said about me was so meaningful.

For our second song after the first dance, we got everyone on the dancefloor, and it was so much fun. For our honeymoon, we went to Cape Town in South Africa. Iffan organised it all and spared no expense. He knew I’d always wanted to go on a safari. Our top tip for any couple about to tie the knot is to stand back, take it all in, and enjoy it! It goes so quickly, so try to remember every detail. 32
